2019 What People Had to Say About Laura Smith In Concert
March 10, 2019 Martha Vowles, audience member, Lansdowne Concert Series, Fredericton, NB “I saw Laura Smith several times in the eighties and early nineties. Her performances have always moved me. It was a joy to see that she is aging like a fine wine. ...she exudes a lightness of being that seems rooted in gratitude and the joy of creating and sharing. I can only hope that she and Kim Dunn visit New Brunswick again soon. We’ll be there.”
2018 What People Had to Say About Laura Smith In Concert
December 4, 2018 - Peter Bevan-Baker, Victoria Playhouse, Victoria-by-the-Sea, PE.
“Ann and I had a beautiful time at Laura Smith’s concert this afternoon in the gorgeous Victoria Playhouse. Laura was delightful and funny and charming and poignant, and the audience left feeling like we’d had a big old warm Xmas hug. Props to Chris Corrigan (who was sequestered at almost literally the last minute as a substitute) for some amazing guitar work...”
(Note from Laura: My first-ever concert where I was asked to learn Christmas songs - and did! Now, I’m thinking I could make a Christmas Concert a habit...)

“The performance, the performers, the venue, the sound!, the light, the audience....a list...if I wrote them in order of excellence..they would all be on top of each other and you couldn't make them out...so I have picked them apart for clarity. Thank you.”

May 31, 2018 - Tracey E. MacNeil, Executive Director, Strathspey Performing Arts Centre
"I've been a Laura Smith fan for 25 years now. Her performance at Strathspey Performing Arts Centre on May 31st was over the top, better than I could have even dreamed. Her stories, her honestly, her voice! She is beautiful and exudes the essence of what love and great music is all about. Thank you Laura, you made my year."......

“Just watching Laura Smith here at the Cumberland Hotel. What a stunning singer she is ! She is a rare artist who knows how to hold back, never shows off her chops but then kills you with them at the right moment. I think this is the last night of her tour but if you ever get the chance, don’t miss her. The almost-lost-art of a brilliant singer who serves the songs she sings. Tingly! She’s also a helluva writer”.

“I saw Laura Smith today in Merigomish and I have to say something about it. It was and always is transformative to witness her art. I don’t feel that way about any other singer.Let me be clear about this. I flew to Ottawa and paid $500 for two tickets to Barbara Streisand and left before the encore. I’ve seen Diana Ross, Bette Midler, K.D.Lang ;live.....and they were all enjoyable with some awesome moments; lots of music and theatre in my time; however, I find most of it mediocre.I don’t trust concerts .I wouldn,t go to most if the admission was free.... She is truthful and crystal clear. She is brave and brazen and naked and lush. I feel like I'm so lucky to be in the room in which she is singing and playing and speaking. I feel a kinship and a joy with the other people who have found their way there at that same time and place. She clears my head, she opens me up and she makes me want to be a better singer. I love her for that........”.
Peter North - Artistic Director, Salmon Arm Roots and Blues Festival. May 8, The Nexus on First, Salmon Arm, BC - “Laura continues to be one of the most remarkable artists of our time and that was a show to remember”.
